A multigravida gave birth to an 18-week fetus last week. During her follow-up she sees that it is documented in her medical record that she had one abortion and becomes upset over the use of this word. How can the nurse best explain this terminology to the client?
 
  1. Abortion is what we call all babies who are stillborn.
  2. Abortion is the word we use when someone has miscarried.
  3. Abortion is how we label pregnancies that end in the second trimester.
  4. Abortion is the medical term for all pregnancies that end before 28 weeks.
